Before You Step Into Seoul’s Hidden Alleyways…
Everything you need to know before you bring Seoul’s neon-lit backstreets to life.
What exactly is the Seoul Hipjiro Book Nook Kit?
Inspired by the hidden backstreets of Seoul’s Euljiro district, this kit captures the unique charm of “Hipjiro” — a place where old metal workshops meet neon-lit bars and underground cafés. You’ll build a miniature scene that blends the industrial grit of the past with the artistic energy of modern Seoul. It’s your own pocket-sized city of light, life, and stories waiting to unfold.
Is it beginner-friendly?
Yes, it’s perfect for both beginners and experienced builders. Every piece is pre-colored, precisely cut, and numbered, making assembly easy to follow. The average build time is about 5 to 7 hours, making it ideal for a weekend project. No painting or special tools are needed — just patience, curiosity, and a love for creating something beautiful.
What’s included inside the box?
Everything you need to bring Seoul Hipjiro to life. The kit includes pre-colored wooden pieces, LED lighting with a battery box, an English instruction manual, a protective dust cover, and detailed décor pieces such as metal shop signs, neon lamps, and storefront details.
(Glue and batteries are not included due to shipping restrictions.)
Does it come with working lights? How does it work?
Yes, every ANAVRIN kit includes a pre-wired LED lighting system that transforms your build once completed. Simply insert 2 × AAA batteries into the battery box, switch it on, and watch the scene come alive with a warm, vibrant glow. The lights illuminate the alleyway signs and windows, adding a sense of life and atmosphere that feels straight out of Seoul at night.
What makes Anavrin’s kits special?
Every ANAVRIN design is born from our own travels and firsthand experiences. The Seoul Hipjiro Book Nook was inspired by our late-night wander through the narrow alleys of Euljiro — where flickering neon lights reflected off steel shutters and locals gathered in tucked-away bars. We wanted to capture that raw energy and quiet nostalgia, turning it into a miniature world you can hold in your hands.
Can I gift it to someone?
Absolutely, and it’s a gift they’ll always remember. Each kit comes beautifully packaged and makes a thoughtful present for anyone who loves Korean culture, architecture, or creative projects.
✨ 97% of our customers said this was the best gift they’ve received in a long time — a meaningful experience that brings hours of focus, joy, and relaxation.
What if I break or lose a piece?
Don’t worry. Our support team can send replacement parts so your Seoul Hipjiro stays complete and beautiful. Just contact us and we’ll take care of it right away.
Do I need any extra tools?
You’ll only need a silicone-based craft glue and a pair of scissors or tweezers. Everything else you need is already included in the box.
Are these suitable for children?
We recommend the kit for ages 10 and above. Many parents share that their 6 to 8-year-olds enjoy building together with guidance. It’s a fun, screen-free way to create something memorable while spending quality time as a family.
